What this contract is for

The National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (NAVCC) unit of the Library of Congress (LOC) is an audiovisual preservation and digitization facility located on the Packard Campus in Culpeper, VA. The Video Lab at the NAVCC is tasked with the digitization of multiple tape and disc formats of analog and digital video. It was designed and built to substantially emulate a video production facility and uses an Evertz Master Sync Generator system. This system provides crucial reference video test signals for the video lab. It allows the VTR’s (video tape recorder) to lock on to a reference signal which provides the most optimal conditions for error free digitization of analog video and audio into the digital signal which is then used by the encoders to create archival files. The current system is obsolete and has been damaged beyond repair in certain areas such as the GPS antenna and cabling, which has suffered rodent damage. The Library needs a contractor that will provide system hardware, installation and documentation for the replacement Master Sync system in the Video Lab at NAVCC.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.

This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
